Payment Date

I am extremely disappointed that the software would not allow me to make my payment date for taxes to July 15, 2020 even though both the State and the Fed extended to that date. It forced me to choose a date on or before April 15, 2020. In times like these those extra 3 months would have helped.
I would recommend this to a friend!

I understand why H&R Block devotes most of their attention to providing a good federal package, and I've liked using it for many years. But the state package, at least for Wisconsin, seems superficial and does not match the federal standard. Wisconsin is very cool towards tax-free investments, with only a few exclusions carrying over from federal. The H&R Block Wisconsin package does not leave you with any confidence about how this confusing topic is handled.
Also, this is the first year that I've paid extra for electronic filing at the state level. The process seemed unnecessarily awkward, though it apparently worked out OK. Downloading H&R Block's own PDF package was slow, and seemingly unnecessary, since I've got Adobe Acrobat already. Then, there was ambiguity about whether my federal information would automatically be appended to the Wisconsin return. Guess it was.

Only problem I had was with having to disable my Windows Defender antivirus monitoring to be able to update the software with earlier updates. This is the only software with which I've had this problem. Otherwise, taxes are dealt with just fine.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Easy to import documents, Fast
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Very straight-forward interview style. Needs a bit more helpful hints/explanation for contributory pension percentage, but other than that, makes the tax job easy.
Pros: Easy to prepare, Fast
